On October 1st in the Marriott Plaza Hotel, Buenos Aires, Habitat for Humanity Argentina organized its annual Dinner with the theme “More than houses”. The dinner was one of its main fund raising events as well as a way to share and celebrate our achievements, and to recognize the people, companies and institutions that collaborate with our mission. with dedication and commitment.
The Master of Ceremonies was Mariano Peluffo, it was sponsored by Banco Provincia Fuerza Solidaria and there were many guests from different companies and organizations.
The evening began with a welcome cocktail, followed by the presentation of the new HPHA video and the game “Let’s do more than houses”, in which each table turned into a construction team to be part of a great “building work”: constructing small houses with little bricks sold by a group of volunteers! Guests were able to be creative and imaginative showing that faith and love have no limits when you build with commitment. While houses were being built at each table, a screen showed how an abandoned building was slowly turned into a new and refurbished home. The money raised was earmarked for the “Recycling Urban Homes” project.
In recognition of their help, a symbolic “golden brick” was presented to Accenture, Citi, Ford, General Electric, IFC Argentina, Intel, Nortel, Novartis, Price Waterhouse Coopers and Sheraton Hotel Buenos Aires. The evening concluded with an acrobatic act and dancing.
The success of this event was, of course, due to the participaltion of guests, volunteers, donors and sponsors demonstrating again how, with everyone helping, great things can be accomplished!
